On Saint's Eve, almost a million more music streams were recorded in the UK compared to the previous year's record. This astonishing feat was revealed by the Official Charts Company on New Year's Day.
Even though music streaming has seen significant growth worldwide, never before has a single day surpassed the 1-million mark in music retrievals in the UK on any day other than Christmas Eve.
However, the love for music and celebrations doesn't stop there, as statistics show that music streaming on New Year's Eve often comes close to the number recorded on Saint's Eve.
